Flying through space
"The man who knew infinity"
Srinivasa Ramanujan (Dev Patel) travels to Trinity College in England to work with professor G.H. Hardy (Jeremy Irons).
About 2 great mathematicians of the 20th century.
The film also shows the racism in English academia at the time.
Hardy was an atheist and Ramanujan a deeply religious Hindu who claimed he got his ideas from
Kuladevata (his family Godess).
Here are some interesting quotes from the film. which show how they both dealt with each other's a/theism.

"The Physician" (English version on Netflix)
(During the 11th century, a destitute orphan travels to Persia to study medicine with a famed healer (Ibn Sina.).
Well worth a watch, even though it may not be completely historical accurate.
Another great performance from Ben Kingsley.
